All my life I have been afraid of spiders, to the point I can not get near them, not even kill them. However, when I stumbled upon this fellow over here with my camera in hand, I could not miss the shot. It was the first time I've seen one of this kind, so I don't know the name (if you do, please put it on the comments), the point is that I was mesmerized by its beauty, and the closer I got,I could see it was eating a bee it had captured before. It is the natural order of things, a predator eating its prey. Nature is beautiful enough to make us forget our fears, even if it's for a short period of time.
I may have failed to comment that I do photography as well. This one was shot in San Juan de los Morros, Venezuela. I grew up watching Animal Planet, which may explain why photographing nature is one of my favorite hobbys, I find it relaxing and inspiring. If anyone reading this post is a fellow photographer, share in my comments what do you like to shoot, what inspires you?
All the love, G.
